Sigmund Freud developed the psychodynamic approach which views the mind as having three parts - the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious. The unconscious contains desires and wishes formed in childhood that influence behavior. Freud also proposed that personality has three components - the id, ego, and superego. The id contains urges for instant gratification, the ego mediates demands of the id and external reality, and the superego acts as the conscience. A key aspect is that childhood experiences influence later personality development and behavior. Defense mechanisms like repression and rationalization help reduce anxiety by regulating thoughts and impulses from entering consciousness. While criticized as unscientific, Freud's theory significantly impacted views of personality, motivation and development.

Nature of Cognitive Psychology & Current Trends
According to Neisser(1967), Cognitive Psychology is the branch of psychology concerned with how people acquire, store, transform, use and communicate information.
Cognitive Psychology deals with our mental life; what goes inside our heads when we perceive, attend, remember, think, categorize, reason, decide, and so forth.
This power point presentation is on Carl Rogers theory of personality. This ppt would be helpful for both UG and PG students and is developed to fulfill the objective of curriculum.
Originally Eysenck characterized an individual's personality on two scales. Introversion - extraversion and stable - unstable. A person may thus be
Introverted and Stable,
Introverted and Unstable,
Extraverted and Stable or
Extraverted and Unstable.
The scale, stable - unstable, measures an increasing level of neuroticism. Eysenck's term "neuroticism" does not mean that the persons actually have neurosis, only that they are more inclined to get one.
They are continuous scales, so one can of course also score in the middle, for example, only 50% unstable and only 50% introverted. Later in his career he added Psychoticism.

Psychoanalytic theories explain human behaviour in terms of the interaction of various components of personality. Sigmund Freud was the founder of this school.
Freud drew on the physics of his day (thermodynamics) to coin the term psycho-dynamics. Based on the idea of converting heat into mechanical energy, he proposed psychic energy could be converted into behaviour.
Freud's theory places central importance on dynamic, unconscious psychological conflicts.
The term got its start in psychoanalytic therapy, but it has slowly worked its way into everyday language. In Sigmund Freud's topographical model of personality, the ego is the aspect of personality that deals with reality. While doing this, the ego also has to cope with the conflicting demands of the id and the superego. The id seeks to fulfil all wants, needs and impulses while the superego tries to get the ego to act in an idealistic and moral manner. What happens when the ego cannot deal with the demands of our desires, the constraints of reality and our own moral standards?

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Psychodynamic Approach
EDU 301 EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
Dr. Hala Fawzi
2. The Psychodynamic Approach
Sigmund Freud —1856-1939
• An Austrian Neurologist
• Freud based his thinking on clinical observation, research and
reflections to form his famous and controversial theory.
• The psychodynamic approach as a whole includes all theories that
were based on Sigmund's ideas.
3. Key features of the Psychodynamic Approach
The emphasis is on the role of the unconscious mind, the structure of
personality and the influence that childhood experiences have on later life.
4. Key Feature (1): The unconscious, preconscious and
conscious
Freud proposed that the the mind is subdivided into different levels of
conscious awareness.
(1) Conscious: thoughts and perceptions
(2) Preconscious: available to consciousness, e.g. memories and stored
knowledge
(3) Unconscious: wishes and desires formed in childhood determines
most behavior
5. Levels of Consciousness: Iceberg theory
Contains information
that we are aware of and
have easy access to.
(10%),
Holds on to information
easily retrievable
10-15%
Holds all the
information that
the conscious
cannot deal with.
75-80%.
Freud‘s ‗mental iceberg‘ view of the mind.
7. Key Feature (2): The personality
1. Id – unconscious impulses that want to be gratified, without regard to
potential punishment.
ID is the primitive psyche – encompassing all the basic needs, feelings
and motivation.
8. Key Feature (2): The personality
3. Superego – the ―moral‖ center of our personality which tells us
right from wrong (somewhat conscious).
It holds all of our internalized moral standards and ideals that we
acquire from both parents and society--our sense of right and wrong.
The superego acts to civilize our behavior.
It works to suppress all unacceptable urges of the id.
9. Key Feature (2): The personality
2. Ego (primarily conscious) –This is the most challenging and
conflicting part of the mind as it focuses on maintaining balance among
two opposite forces. --Ego mediates conflict between id and superego
10. Let’s watch a very short video
Watch the other video on the Moodle
11. Personality Development
Freud used the term ego strength to refer to the ego's ability to function
despite these fighting forces.
A person with good ego strength is able to effectively manage
these pressures, while those with too much or too little ego
strength can become too disrupting.
According to Freud, the key to a healthy personality is a
balance between the id, the ego, and the superego.
12. Personality Development-Educational Setting
• Teachers to be aware of personality development.(e.g.,
stealing, lying).
• Teachers pay attention to the behavior that could cause
students to behave in a certain way.
13. Before we move on...
Key features of the psychodynamic approach :
• Mind has three parts:
– conscious: thoughts and perceptions
– preconscious: available to consciousness, e.g. memories
and stored knowledge
– unconscious: wishes and desires formed in childhood,
biological urges; determines most behaviour.
• Personality has three components:
– id: unconscious; urges needing instant gratification
– ego: develops in childhood; rational; chooses between id
and external demands
– superego: conscience, places restrictions on behaviour.
14. Personality Development
Anxiety
• What happens when the ego cannot deal with the
demands of our desires?
• According to Freud, anxiety is an unpleasant
inner state that people seek to avoid.
• Anxiety acts as a signal to the ego that “things are
not going right!”
15. Types of anxiety
1. Neurotic (phobic) anxiety is the unconscious worry that we will lose
control of the id's urges.
2. Reality anxiety is fear of real-world events. The cause of this anxiety
is usually easily identified. The most common way of reducing this
anxiety is to avoid the threatening object.
What do you do when you fear receiving a dog bite from a dog nearby?
3. Moral anxiety involves a fear of violating our own moral principles.
16. Personality Development
Handling Anxiety
• Freud argued that we need to reduce the
anxiety/nervousness/unease associated with unpleasant
thoughts.
• To do this, we reject unpleasant thoughts from the
conscious mind & force them into the unconscious mind.
• The ―ego‖ employs ―defense mechanisms‖ to regulate
anxiety
17. Key Feature (3): The Basic Constituents of Psychodynamic
Approach:
Defence Mechanism
There are a number of defence mechanisms that have been described by
researchers. Anna Freud described (10).
Click on the link to the quiz on the Moodle to go over the rest of the
defence mechanisms.
18. Defence Mechanism 1: Repression
1. Repression: the suppression of unpleasant thoughts. We push
unpleasant thoughts into unconscious so that we can‘t access them.
E.g., a child who is molested, may suppress the traumatic event so that
he/she has no memory for the event.
19. Defence Mechanism 2: Denial
2. Denial- refusing to believe something unpleasant has occurred. We
refuse to accept horrible news, even with evidence to the contrary.
• E.g., you hear a friend has died & can‘t believe it‘s true.
20. Defence Mechanism 3:Rationalization
3. Rationalization – we justify the actions or events that have happened.
• E.g., A student who decides to forgo studying for an exam the night
before & sleeps on the coach until her parents wake her up.
21. Defence Mechanism 4: Displacement
4. Displacement- you take out your anger & frustration on a person or
object not the actual target of your anger.
E.g. After being questioned by your boss (teacher), you go home & yell
at your siblings or your maid.
Follow the links below to read more about each type of defence mechanism as well as
other defence mechanisms described by psychologists. You should take the quiz at
the end!

22. Criticism of Freud‘s Psychodynamic
Approach
•Unscientific
•Methodologically poor
•Untestable (e.g. concept of denial)
•Limited impact on scientific psychology.
23. Pros of Freud‘s theory
Significant impact: on the theories of personality, motivation, and
development..
Freud was the first to challenge the view that mental disorders
were caused by physical illness.
• Freud proposed that psychological factors were responsible, thus this
how we can treat the origins of abnormal behaviour.
•
Childhood experiences are important in personality development.
24. Pros of Freud‘s theory
• Information outside of awareness does influence us.
• Unconscious thoughts & emotions are brought into awareness to be
dealt with.
• Defense mechanisms—good descriptions of some of our
behaviors.
•Cure neuroses by bringing material from unconscious to
conscious: dream analysis
